AFD is a program to automatically distribute files either locally or to remote hosts. The files are distributed by using FTP or SMTP, and can be sent in parallel and with priority. It provides a GUI to monitor and control the distribution and extensive logging of all activities.

Apsfilter is a magic printfilter, allowing you to print different document
types "automagically" without having to convert them manually into something
which is understood by your printer. Apsfilter is a mature and powerful
printing solution for any flavor of Unix running lpd or LPRng. It supports the
latest GhostScript version and 3rd-party printer drivers (such as hpijs, ijs,
hpdj, pcl3, and gimp-print). It autodetects lots of file, archive, and
compression types. It supports printing on local as well as on Appletalk, Unix,
and Windows remote printers. General and "per printer-queue" based config files
allow you to configure the printer for your needs. The lpr command line options
allow you to change printing parameters like print quality, orientation, duplex
mode, etc. "on the fly" without having to edit any config file. A SETUP script
helps you to test various supported ghostscript drivers prior installation,
makes the necessary entries in /etc/printcap, creates spool directories, and
creates apsfilter default config files as needed. A handbook in HTML is
available. Several tools are also included: "aps2file" allows you to print to a
file via apsfilter, "apspreview" previews files as generated by apsfilter using
gv and friends, and "apsfilter-bug" assists you in doing bug and problem
reports.

bcnu is a Web-based system management tool which delivers information on the status of networked systems in a simple and easy-to-use manner. It uses a web browser to display information about hosts in a tabular form. Historical information can be held indefinitely, and there is a powerful query tool available to interrogate it. Client systems can run an agent which logs information back to a central system. An agent scheduler is integrated to allow agents to be run at different intervals. Standard agents include ftp, http, disk space, logfiles, processes, and more.

CodeBase is a high-speed xBASE compatible database engine for C/C++, Visual Basic, Delphi & Java programmers. You can use CodeBase to write high performance database applications that are multi-user compatible with FoxPro, dBASE and Clipper, create anything from a Java applet to a full-blown Windows database application to a simple DOS utility, write scalable applications that can be deployed as single-user, multi-user or client/server, all without changing any of your source code, and port your applications to Windows, DOS, UNIX, OS/2, and Macintosh. There's a free 30-Day Test Drive option available. CodeBase is available for every major operating system including Windows XP, 2000, 9x, NT, CE, DOS, OS/2, Macintosh, and a variety of Linux and UNIX platforms including Solaris, SunOS, HP/UX, AIX, SCO, and others.

distributed.net is a loosely knit group of computer users from all of the world that is taking up challenges requiring lots of computing power (most notably the RC5, DES, and OGR cracking contests).
